Wrong! Attempting to not capsize and or suffer major of minor injuries or fatalities by maneuvering to avoid beig hit by waves. Can and will result in 1 million dollar fines, criminal misdemeanors and felonies as well as sanctions against all sailors aboard.

Ships designed to have an average density less than the surrounding air as stated about 1:05 are called airships. Designing an ocean going ship to be lighter than air would be a truly impressive accomplishment. As an engineer myself, I give you "props" for an otherwise excellent and entertaining video.

They're called self-righting boats and the best at this game are the little 30-40 foot sailing cruisers - but this kind of boat design began with hookas and orkas used by the Irish back when Latin was the lingua franca and all roads led to Rome. They could sail circles around the Roman boats and that's why the Romans sent a delegation to the British Isles. For me, sometimes it's fun if I try to imagine how things would have turned out if the Romans had acquired Irish boat-building tech....

with the titanic, the water tight compartments were not sealed. they also did not extend high enough. in most modern ships each water tight section is actually sealed with whats called bulkhead deck. when fully sealed each section can be flooded, and in some ships, they can flood sections on purpose to keep ship balanced.

Air-tight-hatches can be a devastating feature: when a fire below decks occurs the crew can deprive it of oxygen by dogging the hatches as an airlock, the fire consumes the oxygen & burns itself out before spreading; fire consumes air making a vacuum, then the fire goes out, expanded-steam & air cool, contracting the air-pressure increasing the vacuum: water-pressure and atmospheric-vacuum combine to fold-the-ship equalizing pressure differences.

i see a lot of comments people comparing with titanic. titanic crashed into a big rock and not wrecked by waves, those are 2 different things. also titanic wasnt the same build as ships these days. a cargo ship aint a passengership like they show you in the video. also they dont show you the torque forces of a bottom of a ship what it does when going on high waves. with high waves the bow want to turn to left mean while the rear end want to torque to the right (or otherway around). this causes verry high forces on the weldings of a ship (specialy the cross parts of the weldings) were the chance of breaking is the highest!. its like sailing on a sandbank with a cargo ship (it can break in half) and will start crack at the cross points of the weldings and then go further all the way up!!! a wrong way of loading a cargo ship gives the same results (it can break in half) caused by wrong forces at front and rear. i have build and welded long ships for long years 140meters length👍

I once got to use a realistic ship simulator. We got the operator to turn the storms all the way up and we were compensating for what our bodies thought it would be. We nearly fell over, it was crazy. The system itself was also crazy. It had probably 30 pcs running it. That was over 10years ago. I can only imagine what its like now.
The Titanic was not the first ship to have water tight bulkheads, it was the first ship with water tight bulkheads to sink.
The ship that snapped in two off the coast of Turkey was classified as a river/littoral freighter, it wasn´t ment to be on the open Black Sea
I love WATOP CHANNEL ❤
12:25. I instantly recognized that ship. Captain Sig Hansen
Air-tight-hatches can be a devastating feature: when a fire below decks occurs the crew can deprive it of oxygen by dogging the hatches as an airlock, the fire consumes the oxygen & burns itself out before spreading; fire consumes air making a vacuum, then the fire goes out, expanded-steam & air cool, contracting the air-pressure increasing the vacuum: water-pressure and atmospheric-vacuum combine to fold-the-ship equalizing pressure differences.
Respect for nature increases everyday the waves are terrific but beautiful
It was also "impossible" with the titanic
the titanic wasn't claimed to be unsinkable until after it sunk
I feel it needs to be said, titanic was far from the first ship to have bulkheads like what it says in the video, bulkheads have been used since around the same time we started using steam to power ships which far predates titanic.
this video reminds me off Scary Interesting videos... must be the music :p
The thumbnail picture of the country has significant incidents of sinking these types of vessels every 1 or 2 years.
This channel is educational
2:50 vessel belongs to company i used to work for. Its ages behind civilization
The Titanic would have stayed afloat if all the ballasts would have been sealed, but those who didn't know ALL the ballasts were open at the top. That's why it sunk so fast, backing up a theory it was made to sink.
2:43 made in Youghal Ireland 😊
An equally odd double-negative title might be, "Why home owners are forbidden to avoid tornadoes." As for the copyright issue noted in the description, unless you, WATOP, recorded the videos yourself, you don't have ownership. Did YOU get permission from the actual owners to post them?
Or why YT viewers are forbidden to avoid clickbaits...
Oh yes they can . Some long ships like tankers can break in half from the stress on the hull
Well, it’s good to know, modern ships can withstand all the weather…until they CAN’T!
"Are Forbidden"? When was the last time you talked to a Master of a ship?
This guy should have been a sailor ! ✌️
Love this channel. But that slurp kills me.
That's buoyancy yes 😅
Now we know why "the front fell off".
Could boats have airbags that inflate if it starts sinking?
Mythbusters disproved that toast myth like 20 years ago.
"The front of the ship fell off."
Titanic: I guess you wonder where I been
He changed the title. Now it's just that large waves don't sink big ships.
Watch the video before you comment..
@@reece3163 the title was “why it’s impossible for large ships to sink” so I made a joke
Yea they can.
The joke is, that there exists photographs of Rogue waves from times when theyre existence was not accepted.
Seems like they willfully disregarded centuries of sailors' accounts of rogue waves up until an official study in 2000.
i see a lot of comments people comparing with titanic. titanic crashed into a big rock and not wrecked by waves, those are 2 different things. also titanic wasnt the same build as ships these days. a cargo ship aint a passengership like they show you in the video. also they dont show you the torque forces of a bottom of a ship what it does when going on high waves. with high waves the bow want to turn to left mean while the rear end want to torque to the right (or otherway around). this causes verry high forces on the weldings of a ship (specialy the cross parts of the weldings) were the chance of breaking is the highest!. its like sailing on a sandbank with a cargo ship (it can break in half) and will start crack at the cross points of the weldings and then go further all the way up!!! a wrong way of loading a cargo ship gives the same results (it can break in half) caused by wrong forces at front and rear. i have build and welded long ships for long years 140meters length👍
That's funny, rolling over doesn't keep the oil in the engine where it needs to be! Then again if it's not fastened down it's going to move!
"every year numerous se(a)men die in accidents" -- WATOP 2024
Apparently, in your opinion, it is possible to die only when the ship is sinking?
In order not to seem stupid, sometimes you should keep silent
Your voice sounds like RedWheel's voice.
If about 1300 containers are lost each year, how are there only around 12000 lost in total? It's not like shipping containers were only invented 10 years ago. 🤔
Terrifying footage of waves trying to destroy the ship
please stop with the give this video a thumbs up! I am so sick of every youtuber out there telling me to "Like comment and subscribe" like I am some damn fool who does not understand how the youtube algorithm works. I know good and well how it works and most videos i watch are videos from a channel I have not seen before. I have about 20 subscriptions currently and do not plan to add to many more to that unless they stand out for a significant reason. Very good commentary, very amusing to watch and most important do not preach the like comment subscribe thing on every video. If I subscribed to every channel, my feed would be so full of videos to sort through i would miss the ones I genuinely enjoy watching and taking part in the things the channel has to offer me. My time is valuable and i sincerely do not appreciate content creators who ask for likes etc. If you want a like or a subscription shut up and earn it! By creating enjoyable and informative videos with out the crap that make me want to smash the thumbs down button and click do not recommend channel again.
My man 4:53 roasted the titanic
The Titanic WAS in fact advertised as unsinkable. John Jacob Astor has been notably quoted as saying "God Himself could not sink this ship." Funny what happened shortly after.
Shipbuilder Magazine wrote in an article that the ships (Olympic and Titanic) were "practically unsinkable". White Star nor Harland & Wolff ever officially said or advertised such a claim.
A ship is designed to have an average density less than that of air? I think the narrator meant to say water.
The southern ocean has entered the chat it is not uncommon to get waves over 36m during storms
2:41 these boats don't sink because they are built with no water ingress. Every ship rights itself if it was possible to make it impossible to flood.
_"when designing cruise ships engineers aim for the ship's average density to be less than that of the surrounding air"_ That's wrong on so many levels. It's clear that whoever wrote this had no understanding of the topic and didn't give a toss about providing accurate information.
Water: Nah I'd win.
i've never understood why engineer haven't scraped the whole idea of vessels staying atop the seas. Why not design something that basically a two sided ship so when... I mean "if" the vessel caps or turns over its just a new ship. A ship under a ship.
an interresting concept however it would reduce the ability to carry cargo and load
Monsters are just MONSTERS 👹 😬
_Titanic_ was the first ship to use watertight compartments? I'm not even sure it was the first ocean liner to do so! Remember it was a near clone of the _Olympic_ which launched first. Anyone knowledgeable care to chime in?
If they are “ forbidden to avoid monster waves” does that mean that company policy means seeking them out on purpose? I think you’re trying to say that they are bidden to avoid them? You’re welcome.
Ships are made of IRON? Who knew?
Not for a long time. Steel these days.
@@bcubed72 Yeh that was the point.
Did anyone else miss the answer to the question in the title?
He said modern ships..
A big thanks to the Discovery Channel for all the Crab Boats pictured, lol. Good to see Sig and his crew.
imagine a submarine thats unsinkable
I'm sorry, but I laughed way too hard when I heard seamen ^^
Didnt the Titanic have those water sections, but they were all connected which made them useless
No, it was because they didn´t go up high enough, so the water "spilled over" from one compartment to another.
@ScaryInteresting background music
Ships sink every year. Rouge waves are a thang.
The last thing they would accept is ships diverging from their course. 😅 Yeah...... exactly.....the poor bastards working on the ship are the ones that have to "take the risk".
The titanic would like some words with you.
You didn’t even mention the gyroscopic devices there, installing in boats and ships now to literally counteract rocking on the boat you can reduce rocking by 80%
The El Faro and the Edmund Fitzgerald didn’t get the memo.
please add metrics...
the Titanic be like: 👀
ships don't like waves and bad weather 🤣🤣🤣
Do any ships have methods for warning whales? Obviously, ships cannot turn to avoid whales. So the whales must avoid the ships. Maybe sound broadcasts under water? A tricky prospect so they do not injure marine life inner ears. Hehe maybe play Metallica? Joking aside. Whales teach each other. If we started, would future generations learn to avoid certain signals? Simple sound pings?
Hi Steve!
X 8:46 ?😊
ok. dumb question. but does anyone else see videos from the channel constantly changin the names and thumbnails in their sub page? cause thats honestly gettin a wee bit annoyin.
It's just desperate people doing anything to increase their view count. What's most annoying is how they often lift other people's original material, posting it as their own.
Yeah I don't know if that title is a good name because you should never challenge nature
Whats with the coffee slurp? gross
Titanic wasn't Large but Huge 😏 but it Sank 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Titanic was tiny compared to modern ships. Especially cargo ships.
@@aj_2W0 OMG, you are so right! 😱 needless to delve into the deep blue sea to search for bigger than Titanic sized cargo ship that sank during bad weather conditions 😏 the almost equivalent size "cargo ship El Faro", well sort of short 80+ feet in length 😅 sank during Hurricane Joaquin 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@johnmockingyou7547 Did you listen to the video? He said ships can sink in really bad weather conditions. I'm pretty sure hurricanes count as really bad storms.
@@aj_2W0 nope not really because I was bz laughing my ass off 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 having read the original title of the video 😏
Lol.. "The average density needs to be less than that of the surrounding air" Are you making a airship that flies? or do you mean water?
🎉🤗 yeah!!! Finally a non animal video! That's like 2 in 3-4 weeks! Variety here we come!? 😁
Wanna bet?
pls use correct grammar - ships are not "forbidden" to avoid monster waves, they are "urged", or "recommended". Your use of the word "forbidden" amounts to a double negative which does not seem to be what you're wanting to say.
🎉
titanic aint know whatsup
I'm sorry but I prefer to be ASKED to click the "Thumbs Up" or to Subscribe. I do NOT appreciate being reminded to.
Seamen 😂😂😂😂dies of accidents
The king and his men stole the queen from her bed and bound her in her bones the sea be ours and by the powers where we will we'll roam.. Yo ho, all hands HOIST THE COLORS HIGH HEAVE HO, THIEVES AND BEGGERS NEVER SHALL WE DIE.. Now some have died and some are alive and others sail on sea with the keys to the cage and the devil to pay we lay to fiddler's green. Yo ho, all hands HOIST THE COLORS HIGH HEAVE HO, THIEVES AND BEGGERS NEVER SHALL WE DIE.. Yo ho, HAUL TOGETHER HOIST THE COLORS HIGH HEAVE HO, THIEVES AND BEGGERS NEVER SHALL WE DIE.. The bell was been raised from it's watery grave do you hear it's sepulchral tone? We call to all pay heed the squall and turn yourself toward home..

I bet a goat could stand in a sideways boat.
Didn't a dude on the Titanic say that and it sank 🤣🤣 it possible to sink ships as long as it on God's watch
WRONG. Modern ships can and do sink as well as capsize and sink.
You must have been one of those people didn't pay attention in school that's because it hit the side of an iceberg that scratched a hole open in the hull
Duty saying they don't do that because of the waves and yes some do but that's other ships and other ones that might be older he said modern ships
@@bryanchannell7715 I am very aware of what sank the Titanic. I've only been studying the ship for 25 years.
🤴🏻
And all of the advance in shipbuilding wouldn't be possible without the help of.. Guess who... Elon Musk!!!
Four minutes in, and hasn't touched on the title. Guess I'll never know why a ship is fobidden to avoid monster waves.
Be patient and watch the whole video
:) I like how you politely ask for likes. So I like.
Rouge waves are not defined by their absolute height, but by being twice the height of surrounding waves. If the surrounding waves are 4 feet in height, any wave over 8 feet is considered a rouge wave.
